           Rub the palm of your hand on the grimy pane
                          F#m
In the hopes that you can see
 C#m                                     B
           Stand up tall, pretend you're strong

           Like the ones who cried, like the ones that died

A                 B                      E               
    Scuffle for a nickel, struggle for a dime       
A                    B                          E
